Production Technology
We integrated four conical discussion pods into the open office, each 3.6 meters in diameter and 3.5 meters high. With perforated surfaces and acoustic panels, which provide semi-private spaces and reduce noise. A steel framework supports the structure, and staggered perforations conceal the framework. Using 3D software, we aligned openings for precise fitting. After testing various panels, each unit was pre-assembled, labeled, and installed on-site for effective and comfortable spaces.
Design Challenge
The most challenge during the project development was the conflict between the forward thinking ideas and the conservative needs. While decision makers wanted to try some new office elements, but the users preferred to retain the old work habits, which made persuasion a significant challenge. In terms of design, for the large space and the higher requirements of material selection and technical implementation.
Research
This study explores office space design to improve work efficiency, employee comfort, and create an inclusive atmosphere. Using a qualitative approach, data was collected through observations, interviews, and surveys. Findings showed that open spaces encourage interaction, while private areas aid focus. These insights can enhance productivity, satisfaction, and promote flexible work environments, helping design professionals address employee needs.
Inspiration
The design reflects the portability of lithium batteries, the vibrant colors of Kaohsiung, and the bold nature of people. It embodies green sustainability, extending from renewable energy to architecture and interior design. Circular elements and sustainable materials create a dynamic, energizing workspace that aligns with the future of green living.
Project Duration
The design process was from January to November 2022 in Taipei, and the on-site work was from September 2022 to July 2023.The project completed in July 2023, in Kaohsiung.
Operation Flow
The office layout focuses on education, interaction, and independent work. Central areas encourage frequent interaction, while quiet corners provide space for focused tasks. Inspired by European and American offices, the design creates a welcoming atmosphere. Circular elements guide the flow, with educational and communication spaces at the core. Curved designs offer comfort, while local colors and natural views promote restful environments for stress relief.
